i dont know if this is what u want..but ill try my luck nway.. basically..it's quite easy to set focus on any control...u just open up the properties window for that particular contol...look for an option of TabIndex..then change the tab index...set it to 0 for the control that u want to focus immediately as the tab loads and 1 for the next..2..3..and it goes on...go to the next tab and do the same thing for the controls on it...

As it turns out I know about this and already have the tab sequence set as desired. I don't want to change the tab sequence (too many tabs with too many controls). I could not manually manage that. What I am looking for is: say you have a tab control with three tabs and each tab has 15 controls, plus labels , etc. When tab 1 is clicked, I want to be able to set the focus to a certain control within the tab. Ditto for tab 2 and tab 3.

I appreciate your being gracious and taking the time to help. Many blessings to you.
